I finally found a place to send much needed items for the people in the disaster zone. I received this email in response to an internet ad I placed earlier today.
************************************************** **
My brother-in-law is the Relief Coordinator for our parish and has given me a list of items we desperately need. We are not asking for money...only items needed for these people. If you can help with whatever you can send we would be most grateful! Myron & I will make sure they are distributed where needed. We have alot of donations of soap, toothbrushes, etc so we're ok on those for now.
The following are items we have none or very little of and need
desperately:
*Baby Items: baby wipes / disposable diapers/ formula / baby
bottles / baby shampoo / baby blankets >anything for babies
*Purell or some type hand sanitizer
*Pillows / blankets
*little T-shirts ( babies to childrens sizes)
*Over the counter pain relievers (tylenol, motrin, tums, alka
seltzer, pepto bismol, band-aids, etc)
* color books / colors / board games / books (for kids in shelters)
You can send to:
